Across eons, Earth has gone through countless transformations. The Earth we know today is only a blink in the timeline of its existence. As our planet has changed its inhabitants have evolved with it, and humans are no exception. What forms could Earth take in the future? How might humans evolve to adapt to a changing environment? Minnesota Brass Indoor imagines one possible future in their 2015 program “Cold Blooded.”

After a fantastic kick off to the 2015 season during our audition weekend in January, Minnesota Brass is ready to get back to work. Rehearsals for the hornline and drumline resume Wednesday, Feb. 4, at Brooklyn Center High School (6500 Humboldt Ave. N., Brooklyn Center, MN 55430) starting at 6:30 p.m. (Color guard rehearsals will begin in April).

Prospective hornline and drumline members should attend Wednesday night rehearsals, even if they were unable to attend the audition camp. There will be plenty of time to review details about corps membership, schedules and costs during these weekly rehearsals. Would-be members who have a conflict should email membership@mnbrass.org as soon as possible.
